The passage illustrates how God's purposes transcend human expectations, as seen in Jacob's unexpected blessing of Ephraim over Manasseh, signifying God's grace in choosing the least. This serves as a reminder of God's initiative in salvation, inviting individuals to respond to His grace personally.
